One-touch Karaoke Function
e The one-touch karaoke function is an electronic means allowing
the reduction of vocal frequency bands of music sources (CD,
tape, FM/AM broadcasts), in this way, creating a simple form
of background accompaniment for karaoke sing-alongs when
used in combination with a microphone.
(Note that this function reduces but does not entirely eliminate
the vocal bands of music sources. Also, the function does not
operate with monaural sources.)
1. Attach a microphone to the Microphone jacks.
The Microphone jacks accepts microphones equipped with a
mini-plug (diameter 3.5 mm).
2. Select the desired music source.
3. Switch to "KARAOKE"
using the SFC/KARAOKE button.
To cancel karaoke, switch to OFF with the SFC/KARAOKE
button.
4. Adjust the volume as desired.
5. Use the MIC LEVEL control to adjust the microphone sound
volume.
NOTES:
After completing use of a microphone:
Return the microphone level control to the MIN position, then
disconnect the microphone
plug from its jack. Keep the
microphone
level control set at MIN
when
not using a
microphone.
e By performing recording onto deck II while using the one-
touch karaoke function, you can record the combined (mike-
mixing) musical results of source and your singing. Note that
microphone mixing cannot be performed, however,
when
TAPE is selected as the music source.
Also, during recording, the sound field control, P.,BASS and
Dolby Surround Sound functions do not operate.
e The karaoke function may not operate with optimum effect for
some music sources, for example, with music sources featuring
duets or where the vocals are otherwise divided between right
and left channels or with music sources produced with heavy
echo effect.
e/f microphone
feedback ("howling") occurs, perform the
following:
@ Lower the microphone sound level (rotate the MIC LEVEL
control to the left).
@ Move the microphone as far as possible from the speakers.
@) Lower the overall volume.
